Wow, you guys are quick, thanks for the input.
Glad to hear the oil should be okay, I thought non-detergent oils were best in this case.
Re the starting issue, 6V, front mount distributor, sorry.
New distributor, tractor seems to run just dandy when it starts. BTW, didn't do a compression check but no smoke, no bad engine noises. Sweet.
Think I'll:
1) Change the battery, can't find any punch date sticker and don't have a 6V charger yet but sure can't hurt. Gonna try a red-top Optima.
2) If no cure, will clean the shaft as suggested, Bruce thanks for #36.
3) If no cure, will proceed with other suggestions. Gotta buy manual. Have a great neighbor next door (who had six show tractors) in case I need a hand.
My lane is about 3/8 mile, gonna find a blade and get ready for snow.
Thanks again for all the input. Any more just fire away!
